More and more frequently, computational biomechanics deals with problems where the portion of physical reality to be modeled spans over such a large range of spatial and temporal dimensions, that it is impossible to represent it as a single space-time continuum. We are forced to consider multiple space-time continua, each representing the phenomenon of interest at a characteristic space-time sc...

Mechanical environment has a crucial role in our organism at the different levels, ranging from cells to tissues and own organs. This regulatory is especially relevant for bones, given their importance as load-transmitting elements that allow movement of body well protection vital organs load impacts. Therefore bone, living tissue, continuously adapting its properties, shape repairing itself, b...

The model proposed simulates the effective material behavior of calcified hydrogels using multiscale finite element method (FEM). To this end, representative volume elements (RVEs) are generated to depict biphasic microstructure consisting organic hydrogel and inorganic calcium phosphate. choice matrix influences type agglomeration phase thus dictates geometry RVE. Most commonly, appears in for...
